2015 Financial Services M&A Predictions: New rules, new players, new game?

Chris Goodgame, Partner, Corporate Finance-Transaction Services, Deloitte:

“Recent stress tests have made banks re-evaluate their capital buffers, many of which will turn to M&A to boost capital or indeed facilitate it for others. Opportunities are also to be found in financial technology as crowdfunding and mobile finance maintain their popularity and offer huge growth potential. In the consumer finance space, the regulatory environment has created scope for M&A to meet new compliance demands and government-backed initiatives in both pensions and mortgages”.
